Perfect Arizona Monsoon Day Today
Late morning showers here on the far east side, rain stopped clouds remain, beautiful weather and the picture perfect Arizona monsoon storm. A great day to sit outside and read your favorite book, you would be hard pressed to find anywhere in the nation with as nice as weather as we have today right here in Tucson.

Now THAT is definitely a matter of perception!  Yeah, I can take it had I been in bed... |

Perfectly lovely day, Stone Man. Hard to beat! We Arizonans look for the rain, don't we?  |

Sierra, you must originally be from some rainy place like Oregon or Seattle, right? You hate seeing clouds, don't you? Fess up!
Arizonans normally have this LOVE affair with rain, and will look forward to that first drop like its gold!  |

It's been on and off here. How'd that song go... "rainy days and Mondays always get me down"
I definitely feel a little blah today, but that could also be that I got "laid off" by my part time job. Ugh.

Oh, I have! I hate the monsoons! I've a few coworkers who annoy the hell out of me with their loud cheers and rain dances.  
I'm from a 4-season place, but the weather (sans monsoons) is the one feature of Tucson I love! I think all of ya downpour lovers should move to Seattle and let the rest of us enjoy the sun and the heat!  |

Yeah, but then we'd eventually be on some internet forum complaining: "I HATE this place! WHERE's the sun?" |

I didn't get my fill. Those clouds and pockets or rain (or hail in someplaces!) just teased us and went around us. *pout*
